COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Natural Ice is brewed with a blend of premium American-grown and imported hops and a combination of malt and corn that lends Natural Ice its delicate sweetness. It then undergoes Anheuser-Busch’s exclusive ice-brewing process, which takes the beer to a temperature below freezing and leads to the formation of ice crystals which create its signature rich and smooth taste.

Characterized by its robust body, delicate sweetness and smooth, rich taste.

The introduction of Natural Ice provided the company with two brands in the value priced ice beer category (Busch Ice was also introduced in 1995).

Wow... its not like this beer is great or anything, but I’m surprised its only a 1.05. Light gold... thin fizzy white head. Sweet dusty grain. Faint soapy hops. Light aroma overall. Light sweet grain flavor. Light in flavor, low in offense.

Found myself at a gas station last night after hitting the bar looking for a night cap. With such a shitty selection I figured a tall can was the way to go. Drank it from the can. Smells like my sweat after a night of hard drinking. It’s clear. It tastes like bad beer. But at least it delivered more alcohol to my blood.

Really, truly, I cannot stress how godawful this beer is. Worth it only to get drunk, and in that case I recommend bonging so as to avoid tasting it for too long

40oz bomber from local grocery with at least 30 of those oz routed directly to local sewage treatment plant. Corn aroma with some sweet malt notes. Clear golden with small white head. Flavor is flat sweet corn and malts with some hot alcohol. Slimy sweet finish

I expected NO flavor...what I got was gag-inducing bad flavor. The "people" who "brew" this should be ashamed. Smelled like orange juice that sat next to a basement radiator too long. Tasted metallic, slightly oily with a tinge of mildewy orange. Didn’t even have the decency to be overly carbonated so the bubbles could scrub my palate.

Canned. Really only good for shotguns/beer bongs. Clear gold with white head thats lightly lacy. Aroma is grainy and lightly fruity apple. Light bodied with more fruit and grain flavor with only sweetness and no bitter.

Sampled many times at college. Not bad when you drink it if its cold, but sampled warm its horrible. Higher alcohol content is better than Natural Light. Goes down smooth, but still not worth it.
